Discover the story of the song > Wallflower – Caroline’s Spine

The protagonist is a wallflower who lives alone with his imaginary friends and all his furniture centered around his phone. He sees a girl he likes but can't bring himself to look at her. He wonders if a wallflower should stay on his wall forever or outgrow it eventually. He's also waiting for 'father time' to feel sorry for him and hopes to have more time to figure things out. Later in the song, he gets shot by someone but still can't leave his wall because he can't hold it up any longer. Finally, he thinks he's over it all and wishes for more time.
